Hours Spent Near tlio Old Aroli in Thompson Street , How the Queen Wna Found A Remarkable Rooster Witch Padlooke , New York Sun. In the vicinity of the arch , lu Thompson street , where whitewashing and kalsomlnlng signs and dirty picka ninnies are abundant , wo made Icqnl- rlosfora vondou witch. The whole batch of plckanlnlcs volubly shrieked the desired Information , Wo outarod a blind alley , and ascended the rickety steps of a whitewashed houso. Push ing open the front door , the odor of fried ham and eggs , mingled with the moro pnugent smells nt onions and boiled cabbage , was Rtnolt. Ollmblug a flight of dirty stairs wo knocked at a rear door on the second floor. It waa opened by n colored woman , certainly the largest female , either white or black , over scon outside cf a dhow. Sbo asked what was wanted. She was ever six foot In height , and broad in proportion. On her head was a bright-colored kcrchiof tied at the top , the ends sticking out like a pair of horoo. Acrosa her ample shoulders was spread another kerchief of a moro brilliant hue , fastened at the throat by a brooch of fantastic design repre senting two yellow serpents playing tag among green hieroglyphics on n rod ground. Her fingers were covered with rings. She had aa many as throe or fonr on each finger , the thumbs even not being neglected. By actual count the number waa thirty-seven. Of what material thoao rings wore made It would bo diflionlt to say , but in color they wore whlto , yellow and rod , apparently silver , gold and cellu loid. Ono this information was afterward imparted and received with becoming awe and reverence was made out of throe screws stolen from a cofliu dug up at midnight. Its occult properties were ao mysterious and fir reaching that it could only be men tioned with bated breath. The room was clean and compara tively tidy. A largo black cat aat purring by a highly polished cooking atove , on which a savory smelling stew waa simmering. On the walls hung many mystic signs , the only one intelligible to the 'unltlatod being "Abracadabra. " This was enclosed In a largo gilt piaster of Paris frame , and arranged In the form of an Inverted pyramid , thus : ABRACADABRA ABRAOADABR ABRAOADAB ABRAOADA A B R A 0 A D A B R A 0 A A B R A 0 A B R A A B R A B A A atnflod owl with distended wings engaged In the cheerful occupation of disemboweling a rat , whose llto'a gore was startliugly depleted , stood upon a bracket , and a live rooeter In the last stages of melancholy wai in the cage on a table near the window , making abortive efforts to keep dp his tplrlts by crowing dismally.AivtvmbiVir.tiB attempt to conceal the presence of a bed WHI made by straight strips of calico hanging from the ceiling. "Aro yon a fortune telleil" was asked differentially. "Inebbersald I were , sah , " was the cautions response. "Well , the case la just this My wlfn has lost some valuable jewelry diamond earrings. I have heard oi your great reputation , ' BO have called an yon for assistance. Can yon help m'eT to find them ? " "I'so no fortune teller , sab ; I'so a Hoodoo. " Tho'neooisary apologies were made. _ J"An mor'obor , Bah , I'so oooustdm'd to references. Who reforensbnated yon to me ? " Fdr a moment the searcher after in formation hesitated. Every name but that of the P.rlncess Louise seemed to fade from his mind ; so at a venture he replied "Mrs. Louise Campbell , ' dovontly hoping , as that lady waa It Bermuda , she wonld not hear of the unwarranted use of her name. "A dark complected lady ? " "Yes , ma'am. " "An * lives in Twenty-fourth street1 ? "Eiactly , " with a gasp of relief thai the reference should bo so satisfactory , After this everything progressed smoothly until the charge three del lara wai objected to , it being mildly hinted that a colored lady In Grosbj street wonld Impart the desired Infer matlon for one dollar. In an inatanl all suavity waa swept aside and furj reigned instead. She bogged it to be understood that she waa no "oommor Nor' Korollna nigger , but a ginovinc Hoodoo from Lawsanna. " When three hundred pounds ol human flesh Is prancing about a small room , not [ quite twelve 'feet square , something has to be done , and thai quickly , If the onlooker wishes tc keep his own body Intact. Apologies , If not sincere , were at least given with great earnestness , and the depositing if three dollars on the table seemed tc baye a mollifying effect , She swept the money up in ono of her wild rashes , and It was seen no moro. Her mind soon became tranquil enoogh tc resume business and ask questions. No ono waa ( inspected , so it wae impossible to say whether the thlol waa dork or fair. It might bo a woman , perhaps a man , mayhap a child , Anyway the earrings were gono. "Dah's a good deal ob difficulty lc dU yero case , " said the sooress. After < tor much pursing of lips and knitting of brow , she went to a corner and got a roll of canvass , which she opened and fastened to the floor. It wai about fonr feet square. On it twc circles were drawn , an Inner and at outer ono , with figures resembling the signs cf the Zodiac printed botweet them. Stopping In the center of thii oanvus she , began to gyrate , slowly al first , then faster and faster , until K madf ) mo dizzy to look at her , keep IngcOp meanwhile a low , monotonoui chant of unintelligible gibbering. Al though whirling rotfnd. with .the. momentum montum , of a | op , pever'onoe'dld ; he f eeUtray.jen. Wde the ; circlet It , wai utfl feat , She fell in a heap with a heavy thud that shook the building to its founttn * , lon , aud inado the poor c scd rooster utter a cluck of dismay , She waa still within the magic circle , however. [ Musing nil assistance , nud nhrloklcg , "Kwp oway dnh , keep away , or yorHl epllo do chaiin. " tiho crouched upon the canvass , clutching convul lvcly with her loft hand ouo of the printed iguros. After a while , when' she hod some what recovered her breath , aho said pantlugly : "I dnn'nodUsackly woddor It's a man or a woman , it kind o' bod- dors mo. But I knowa do fiut letter of do PUBBOU'S name who tnk it. " "Yon do ? " "Yoo. It oommoncna wid a V. Who do yor know by dat are name ? ' Turning ever In hla mind all the names ho know commencing with a V , bc-glnnlog wlthVespuclns and end- lug with Venuor , and not. being able , conscientiously , to charge thorn with the lota of the earnings , the reporter said that ho didn't know stivbody whoiio name camuioncoa with a V , "Di n yer wife knowa.

"Hat aho will know , " was the posl- Ivo niipotiBo , and the Borcotcss gave uiimiatakablo indlciliono tlmt aho thought enough had been given for the nv-noy. Before my departure the "Lowaimna Hoodoo" expatiated forcibly and at ; ro t length upon the woudotfnl pow. ; rs of a etone , resembling veiy much an eye ator.c , which aho picked out of a tin box taken from her pocket. The ncky possofsor wonld bo given what- > vcr ho or she wished , no matter what. : t was procured by purloining n ship's cat a ship that had actually boon to oa ; no lake vessel v onld do , She out off its head , and it was danndcd of its losh by auto. The atone was found embedded in the skull. Ito virtues were never known to fail The price was the ridiculously low Bum of $ o The following day she waa much sur prised at the non-discovery of the hltf , and aho told many reminiscences of her pist successes. The vast amount of wealth returned to its lawful owners ors was wonderful , and the number of rrlng and fugitive children returned o the right path by her anpornatural cfluoucos was marvellous. Another rial must bo essayed , an entirely now one , for which she would only charge ouo dollar. This was agreed to. Twenty-Biz carda were laid upon ho floor , each bearing a.lotter of the alphabet. , Upon every ono of those- otters was placed a single grain of oed. The rooster was released from its confinement , and he began to peck with the greatest avidity. As soon PI ouo uraln wei gobbled it wrs immedi ately replaced by another , for a stml- ar letter may ooaur twice in the same namo. Decidedly the rooster was not a SUCCOSD , but ho undoubted had a re markably fine food. He could not lick out a proper combination to spell mything. Atlnat , of tor much dux tor- om manipulation by hi * mlatrure , ho oulootod au oat from a J , an 0 , au R , and a Q. "Ha , ha , " shouted thn negroes , jamplng up in great glee and fuudllng ; ho bird ; "I knowed ho'd gonn dnno an' do it Dt ar'a do name J 0 R Q George !

This last , it wa allugoo , was novoi known to disappoint. Evou the aatis- faction to get rqaaru with the thief , for the paltry chwrge 6f fifty cents and an onion , was refused. All that wai necessary was to stick an onion full ol plna and roast It before a hot fire , /6 peatlng an incantation to be pur chased for the aforesaid fifty cents between midnight and 1 o'clock in thi morning. .

As the twilight wan deepening Into the darker shades of night , a reporter for the Stnr stood at the corner of Madison avenue and Thirty-sixth etroot a few oveulnga ago to witness the Buddou tranaforuiatlou from Glm- orlon darkness to noonday brilliancy in the palatial residence to J. Plerpout Morgan , the well known niombor of the banking firm of Dcoxol , Morgan & Oo. Weary of waiting for the up town oloctrlo lighting district to bo laid out and circled with wlroa to bo connected with uptown residences , Mr. Morgan gave the first order for an Kvllson loolatud plant among the man- ntons of the mllllonalroa who inhabit Fifth , Madison and Lmington avenues , The plant la for 20 ! ) A and 110 B lumps , or a total numbur of 385 burner * . In n twlnklinp , aa if by magic , from every window in the drolling , a flood of mellow light that gave the appoarauoo of a general il lumination. The Star man waa ro- oelvud kindly by-Mr. Morgan , na he entered the mansion , and the myster ious illumination waa explained to bo the perfection of electric lighting. "I have ubaudonod the uao of gas , " said Mr. Morgan , ' 'with the oxcnp- tlonof a'fow jots at various points for use when the ulootrfo light engines are not working.
